Customer Testimonial

"The Build School is a gem! The 3-day class was fantastic! I was excited about how fast the car went together and about all the engineering Factory Five built into the car to make it so easy to build. Both instructors Jim and Todd were excellent!"

Build a Mk4 Roadster, ’33 Hot Rod, or 818S Sports Car in Three Days!

The Factory Five Build School is a hands-on, three day workshop where students build a Factory Five Mk4 Roadster, ‘33 Hot Rod, or 818S Sports Car from the bare frame all the way up to the completed car in three days! Since 2002, the Build School has graduated over 2,000 students from the U.S. and all over the world. Classes are held at the brand-new MCC Livingston Center in Howell, Michigan. Mott College Instructors are certified automotive mechanics.

The school costs $799. Graduates receive a $250 Build School rebate towards the purchase of a Factory Five kit.

Class size is limited to 15 students to ensure individualized instruction. The Build School is a great way to get hands-on practice before you build your own car.

The popular cable TV show “Two Guys Garage” filmed an episode at the Build School. You can watch this episode on the YouTube link below.

Under the careful direction of Mott College’s Automotive Technology instructors, the students build each car as a team. Each student has a chance to build as much or as little of the car as they desire.

Mott Community College Livingston Center is a modern, well-equiped facility. Lunch is provided each day.

It is a fun tradition that the instructors drive the newly-built car at the end of each class. Weather NOT dependent!
